Venture Deals, Brad Feld and Jason Mendelson

I bought this as we were about to start fundraising at Papero, and googling around suggested that this was the best resource to get a primer on how the fundraising world works. Not disappointed: An extremely helpful book targeted exactly at first-timers like me but with just the right amount of detail. Not ideal to consume as an audiobook, as it’s the kind of book that’s useful to dip in and out of, with chapters that need to be revisited a few times to lodge in long term memory. So I asked my mum for the hard copy for my birthday, and the rest is history.
